Dpd's reported carbon emissions
In 2021, DPD Dynamic Parcel Distribution GmbH & Co. KG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1.8 billion kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 193.6 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 47.9 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalling around 1.3 billion kg CO2e. The data reflects a comprehensive assessment of their carbon footprint, with emissions disclosed across all three scopes. DPD has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, and there are no documented climate pledges. The emissions data is cascaded from their parent company, GeoPost SA, through a corporate family relationship, indicating a structured approach to sustainability reporting. The company has shown a commitment to transparency in its emissions reporting, although it lacks specific reduction targets at this time. The absence of detailed reduction initiatives suggests an opportunity for DPD to enhance its climate strategy moving forward.
